Not even sure what you're arguing for at this point. But I'd suggest taking your wet blanket home.

What they're up against isn't lost on any one here.

Just likes to argue everything I say...The Wild being lucky to pick up 1 of 4 points vs. a very average Devils team is certainly relevant to the conversation if you ask me



Hey Paulie, the sky is blue...do something with that, ya freak

Hey Paulie, the sky is blue
Not arguing anything. Just pointing out everyone needs some luck.

You said the Wild scored a lucky goal to tie it is what you said.

People just cant enjoy an exciting win. This was the exact post. That would put Flames at 74GP 84P w/ 8 remaining. Blues at 76GP 87P w/6 remaining. Flames could get another 16 points and finish at 100P. Blues could get another 12 points and finish at 99P. Simple.

But please go back to arguing about how unlikely it is the Flames will get in. Myself and many, many others will be cheering for each Flames win, cheering for each Blues/Wild loss, and enjoying exciting, meaningful hockey in April.

Go Flames Go.

yep, they got a riduculous bounce late in a game they were totally outplayed...again, totally relevant to how they might do going forward

Would be an incredible experience for him and for the team.

Like I said. Such a long shot for both of those things to happen… but it’s the flames season. I didn’t hear no bell.
Worked for the Aves ...

Need one result to go their way OOT with St Louis and they have control of their own destiny again. Maybe not even worry about StL, as one slip by the Wild, and then the game vs the Wild could be the difference.

5 games vs non playoff teams and 4 against teams that are.

My prediction:
W=SJ x2, Ducksx2, Wild, a resting Kings team for the makeup game.
L= Vegas x 2
OTL= Utah
= Playoff profits

Another notable is that 3 of 4 playoff opponent games are at home.

Both Vegas games and the Wild game are at the dome.

Think that helps their cause a bit. T-Mobile arena has been a haunted house for them. Reffing always goes against them there.

That's an improbable win. But you take any win you can get. Can't question this teams resolve.

While we’re negatively whining about how the three teams may fair over the rest of the season let’s also note that Vegas is 7 up on 2nd and 8 back of Winnipeg so they’re really mostly playing for third round jostling. Not as much urgency for them going into the games against us. Especially the last one.

Yeah if Minny and St. Louis play decent we can probably lose one more game this season to get a playoff spot.

I’m not sure if the “people just can’t enjoy an exciting win” was directed at me but if so, you are barking up the wrong tree here.
